I genuinely don't understand why anyone would use twitter to try to get breaking football news.

It's just full of tragic attention seeking bullshit merchants peddling any old nonsense. Yeah there's some genuine scoops, but is it really worth all the effort to sort the wheat from the endless chaff to know x will sign y three days earlier once in a blue moon?

In all seriousness, I get most of my news et al from Twitter these days. just got to follow the right people.

Maffff, Talk Reading, the Chronicle boys (Courtney Friday is putting in a real shift this summer, long may it continue). Appaz Jlow's stuff is getting better, so maybe they have dedicated him to Reading so he can purely concentrate on some quality (along with his click here pieces to keep the revenue coming in).

I don't follow the others, however Mafff does like to retweet their stuff so I do get to see some of it. the guy that walked to Blackburn is a bit of a nob, glad other people see it too and its not just me.

Oh and Mafff, please tell me you are automating that Gravenberch nonsense?

Agree with most of that, but cannot accept what you've put about Courtney Friday, the bloke is an absolute tool. What exactly has he done this summer? Other than have a mate who said he saw Foresterieri in town when the reality is he was with Sheff Wed in Portugal.

His constant berating of the club is very annoying and reeks of someone who is desperate to get a following. The reality is, I would imagine that someone with his inexperience is likely to find themself not welcome at club events in the future. Anthony Smith isn't great, but he's got several years experience to call upon.

bobby1413 Ugh - I hate these people more than I hate those that like Love Island

Bobby have you ever sat down to watch more than 1 random episode? Are you put off because your missus likes it?

*asking for a friend.

Mrs doesnt watch it but she does watch "Catfish" and "Teen Mom" which are worse iMO.

Never watched any of it other than about 30-60 seconds worth. It was up there with Made in Chelsea, Towie etc... Everyone's so superficial, weak spined, wet blankets whose biggest issue is the number of followers they have on Twitter or Instagram. Also what is it these days with the TV being filled with commoners from Essex?

Once upon a time, people on television were regarded as "better than us", and role models to look up to. But nowadays, for a lot of popular 'entertainment' being educated and knowledgeable is seen as a bad thing - what people want is idiots to point at and feel superior to, not experts to learn from.
